  3. Shallow water equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shallow_water_equations

    The shallow-water equations in unidirectional form are also called (de) Saint-Venant equations, after Adhémar Jean Claude Barré de Saint-Venant (see the related section below). The equations are derived [ 2 ] from depth-integrating the Navier–Stokes equations , in the case where the horizontal length scale is much greater than the vertical ...

  4. Torricelli's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torricelli's_law

    By measuring the level of water remaining in the vessel, the time can be measured with uniform graduation. This is an example of outflow clepsydra. Since the water outflow rate is higher when the water level is higher (due to more pressure), the fluid's volume should be more than a simple cylinder when the water level is high.

  5. Streamlines, streaklines, and pathlines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streamlines,_streaklines...

    This is because when a particle on a streamline reaches a point, , further on that streamline the equations governing the flow will send it in a certain direction . As the equations that govern the flow remain the same when another particle reaches a 0 {\displaystyle a_{0}} it will also go in the direction x → {\displaystyle {\vec {x}}} .

  6. Lagrangian and Eulerian specification of the flow field

    Leonhard Euler is credited of introducing both specifications in two publications written in 1755 [3] and 1759. [4] [5] Joseph-Louis Lagrange studied the equations of motion in connection to the principle of least action in 1760, later in a treaty of fluid mechanics in 1781, [6] and thirdly in his book Mécanique analytique. [5]

  7. Lists of physics equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lists_of_physics_equations

    In physics, there are equations in every field to relate physical quantities to each other and perform calculations. Entire handbooks of equations can only summarize most of the full subject, else are highly specialized within a certain field. Physics is derived of formulae only.

  8. Darcy's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darcy's_law

    A number of papers have utilized Darcy's law to model the physics of brewing in a moka pot, specifically how the hot water percolates through the coffee grinds under pressure, starting with a 2001 paper by Varlamov and Balestrino, [6] and continuing with a 2007 paper by Gianino, [7] a 2008 paper by Navarini et al., [8] and a 2008 paper by W ...

  9. Primitive equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primitive_equations

    The primitive equations may be linearized to yield Laplace's tidal equations, an eigenvalue problem from which the analytical solution to the latitudinal structure of the flow may be determined. In general, nearly all forms of the primitive equations relate the five variables u, v, ω, T, W, and their evolution over space and time.
